</I>>>><i> How is a download of a 600MB iso different from installing 600MB of

</I>><i> prefer a local repository with nightly sync. A DVD with all updates is
</I>><i> only a snapshot of one moment in the release's life, part of it may be
</I>><i> outdated next day or week. So, 2 weeks later we have the same

</I>><i>
</I>><i> A DVD with updates is a nice idea for a local community where somebody
</I>><i> has enough bandwidth to host a local repo (or even mirror) and can
</I>><i> hand out update snapshots on request for people with small bandwidth..
</I>><i>
</I>I think that having something like apt-zip[1] on Mageia (I mean based on
urpm) could be a good alternative, too.
